24/Savvy Beauty and Health

You know when you want something specific? Like… I want to make a certain soup or let’s say… a vegan ice cream… or delicious green smoothie? And you just can’t get it out of your mind. You excitedly grab all the ingredients and begin to prepare it… mouth salivating… You throw it in the appliance that will whip it up to perfection and… it ends up being MUSH. It’s called a SMOOTHIE, not a CHUNKIE. (Eww. That word in itself is… eck.)

Whether you're already a fan of Somme or a fan-to-be (we promise, you'll LOVE their 5-Step skin regimen as much as we do) you'll be a bright-eyed superstar with Somme's new EYE treatment. For that uber-delicate skin around the eyes, Somme's lightweight formula delivers moisture right where you need it most, leaving skin feeling soft, smooth and refreshed. Just like a perfect night's sleep.

***UPDATE 5/2/12: THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. Congratulations to our winner LAURIE REUBENKING .  Thank you all for participating and sharing your stories. Check back soon for our next giveaway***

I did not think it could possibly happen. I am unbelievably rough on my hands. I will literally exit the nail salon and immediately knick my newly polished hands. I always say I will be more gentle… but alas… never fails… they break/chip/knick. I have tried silkwraps, acrylics, nail hardeners, quickdrys… everything: most ended up leaving my natural nails brittle or didn't work at all.

Enter GELish Nails. I cannot believe that these things actually work. I am on my second round.  The first one lasted over 3 weeks without a chip and remained super shiny.

Bungee jumping, sky diving, hang gliding, climbing Machu Picchu, visiting Rio, Thailand, Africa, the Great Wall of China, the Pyramids, the Himalayas, Taj Mahal, retiring to an art studio overlooking the ocean and finding products that I know will serve me well so I never have to waste time or money looking for them again...this is just part of my bucket list.
